Lol no worries man, I'll still talk at ya! 
But no, never seen any growth quite like that before. My immediate thought was egg sacs or something like you mentioned. That must be what it is.
Do you find your dagga is a big butterfly attractant as well? I imagine them being quite the treat for them.
Yeah, I never realized that passiflora of any kind grew wild around this area of the country, but one day walking back from my fishing spot, I saw a random single flower that caught my eye and I was just dumbstruck! Absolutely couldn't believe my eyes! Went back and got a couple cuttings the next day after researching what it was. I just had to have it - the damn flowers are just SO amazing I think. And as a bonus, they produce fruit too!

Yea dude the only reason I thought it might be zebra swallowtail was because it was on some kind of leafy vine growing up a Pawpaw tree. I'll have to look up what their egg sacks look like to know for sure.
The dagga is a butterfly attractor but it pales in comparison to all my different butterfly weeds. second in line would be catnip and basal flowers then the dagga flowers for butterfly attraction.
They are some of my absolute favorite flowers up there with clematis.
What kind of flowers have you grown this year and which are your absolute favorites?

Oh heck, I didn't do too much in the way of flowers this year but I would have to say my favorite (even though they haven't bloomed yet) would be dahlias. I've also got tulips, daylillies, dagga, roses, and some other bulb plant that flowers I can't remember it's name. Soon, I want to get an orchid plant or two, and more dahlias and tulips.
